As bug reporter of bug #132947, who notified Ubuntu Security about the
issue, I can barely express myself, as English is not my mother tongue,
how poorly this issue is handled - YEARS passed by. Everyone is
laughting at Microsoft when it takes them 10 months to fix severe
security issues, but seeing this bug, I can well imagine why it takes so
long.

If I were so, and I was, about building packages everytime myself, I
would use Gentoo, Slackware or any BSD - but Ubuntu is a binary
distribution, therefore I like to have a binary delivered. I want
something that just works.

It needs someone to get it done on a political basis - either by fixing
the issue or removing the piece of insecure code.
